Beautiful layout & Conditions

The course was in immaculate shape. The scenery is incredible, the greens are tough but roll incredible. Ball sits up nice on fairways. Great course in the heart of Oak Ridge.

Always A Challenging Round

I have played here before, and always like it. The course seems to hold water much more that others. And like most East Tennessee courses they also make the mistake of using Bermuda grass which is completely wrong for the climate. This time around the staff was super unfriendly for some reason.

Love playing here

Course stays in great shape, greens are good. Some were a little beat up from other players not taking care of pitch marks but not the courses fault. Relatively crowded but okay moved along well. Driving range isn’t the best, grass isn’t grown in and they apparently don’t move teeing area even though they close the range on Mondays. Practice green and chipping area were nice though.

Fairways and tees cut way to low in October so we are playing off dirt. Most cup locations were on a slant and some holes you have your back to the hole.

Okay for the time of year.

Layout was good, with risk reward holes. The only bad thing were the Greens were chewed up. My pet peeve is people not fixing ball marks on the green. The other two courses I’ve played, had tarps to cover the green to protect them. This course didn’t.

Great Challenging Layout

Very nice place. Course is challenging and in great shape. The greens rolled smooth. The rate is fantastic. They do have member that think 6 hour rounds are fine. I was hoping for a better pace of play.

Worth the Money

Overall this course is a great get for the rate in my opinion. The course is really solid shape except for the greens and the bunkers, but that’s really the only catch with this course. The cart alone is worth the fee. Hit balls off of the sod on the range. Facilities were great inside. Beverage cart constantly checking with you.

4 stars

Challenging course. Lots of dog legs throughout. Some tee boxes need a little love and one green needs major repair. Speed of play was reasonable for a Sunday. Course recommendation is to add more signs to where tee box locations are. Would recommend to friends.

Great layout - bad greens

This course is very challenging and has one of my favorite layouts for a golf course. The course uses the natural terrain like hills and trees to really test all aspects of your golf game. Disappointing factor was the condition of the greens. Lots of u fixed divots, hornet nest sand tunnels, and on the 18 green it looks like 2 big divots from a golf club. Quite a few times I could not put on my desired line to the hole due to the issues with the greens. I hope they fix the greens and then it will be really worth the money!

Best it has ever looked and played

First time in a long time where the fairways were not completely flooded due to rain the day before. It was the best I’ve ever seen it!! Looking forward to play it again soon.
